I recently got some new audio gear for the video productions that I’m doing for !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . I needed to get my settings dialed in and I figure if I can capture the sound of my Mustang, then I can capture the sound of most cars I’m going to film. With the high dB and an absurdly fat low-end (bass) tone, this car is pretty hard to accurately record. I think I might have it dialed in for the most part. As far as specs go, I recorded this with a Shure SM-57 running into a TASCAM DR-60D MKII. The settings and EQ are my own recipe and I won’t drone on about all that unless it gets brought up in discussion. So with that said, what do you think of the audio? What could be changed?

The audio sounds great on my phone.

No engine sounds better than a cammy Murican V8. I got a nice chill up my spine there.

Well shoot, that’s a good thing. I actually haven’t heard it on a phone yet but if it even sounds good on that then the settings might be dialed in decently.

Wait. I’m going to play it again in my truck just for laughs. I want to hear it in Stereo.

EDIT: Yup! Sounds good!

DO IT!. There is a low cut at 40 Hz, FYI, and a dip in the 100-150 Hz range to clean up the muddiness. Hopefully it bodes well in your truck.

Nitrous is the cause of, and solution to, all of life’s problems.

A new favorite pastime of mine is finding loud V8 exhaust videos and playing them through the stereo of my car haha

That sounds really damn good. Both the car and the audio. Really crisp.

Don’t knock it till you’ve tried it!

I haven’t had an HP ride in a few years, sometimes it’s nice to live vicariously.

Pretty darn good, can you maintain that quality while driving it around?

Not sure yet; haven’t had a chance to do that. I did film a Saab 9-5 wagon driving around last night on a windy night. I’ll have an example of that soon.
